We all know that this was not as good as the first nerds, how can it be when the first one was so original?. The sequel is more of the same, but not as funny, although many will find humor in "the master", particularly if you are an advocate of toilet humor. Interesting to see Courtney Thorne Smith in an early role, pre Melrose and Ally McBeal. And we all get to see the original nerds again, even Anthony Edwards makes a few guest appearances. Probably a good film to watch when you are not functioning that well, because then you will not really have the opportunity to realise just how bad this film is in comparison to the many great films out there. Yet still there are many that are worse, and let us not forget this film was made in 1987, when comedies in the same vein as Nerds were immensely popular. Its not a good film, but its still watchable, I guess some of us find pleasure in juvenile campus comedies- even if we don't admit it to that many people.
This time the nerds led by Robert Carradine and Anthonny Edwards go to Florida where there they meet a new breed of jocks who they face off against and basically destroy in the end, the problem with this entry is that the nerds this time are too cool to really be considered nerds and they even get a girlfriend sympathetic to their cause, this undermines all the humor, not to mention that away from the college dorm setting, there really isn't much the nerds can do that they didn't in the original. As a sequel this is all disappointing stuff, but aside from James Hong who gives an inspired performance as well as maybe a few vaguely amusing moments, Revenge Of The Nerds II is a big disappointment.
Very rarely does a sequel to a cult hit live up to the expectations of die-hard fans, it happened of course with Ghostbusters and BTTF, but it is certainly a rare treat. It is with this in mind that I unequivocally declare Nerds in Paradise a cinematic masterpiece.
This movie has EVERYTHING!! from a choice soundtrack, great location shots to Booger at his comedic best and a feel good ending with the inevitable nerd triumph. The persecution of the nerds cuts a little deeper than it does in the other three films, but the nerds certainly don't take it lying down, there frustration at being forced into sub-standard accommodation and having the tri lambda fraternity continually ignored despite lewis's assurances that they would be accepted this time culminates in an epic poolside battle, with a few surprises thrown into he mix.
A highlight of the film would have to be Boogers inspiring impromptu speech, when he asks "who decides the standards" despite being in a room packed with jocks. In addition to this the scenes on the beach and poolside as the nerds try their hand with the ladies have predictably hilarious results.
Robert Carradine is amazing as Lewis and he really gives his all into his performance highlighting his commitment to the Nerd films.

A terribly silly but awfully amusing little sequel, it may be a touch predictable, and it is missing Thomas Newman's excellent theme song, but having the same likable characters on hand helps it to be equally as fun as the first film. Some of the jokes are really hilarious, and arguably I would say that it is funnier than the first film. I would not definitely call it better, but it is certainly at least on the same level, with an interesting charm radiating from the nerdy characters. And there is another song to take the place of Tom Newman's ditty: an amusing little number called "No on Fifteen". The film seems to get a lot of negative feedback, but I cannot agree - it may not be a great film, like the first, but it is by all means amusing, like the first.
I love the first revenge of the nerds. The second one is not nearly as good as the first one, but still pretty good. The nerds are still funny in this movie. Booger is once again the funniest of them all. The second one is also entertaining at times. They could've make this movie better if they would've kept the nerds at Adam's college, but the second one is still watchable, and funny. I give revenge of the nerds II: nerds in paradise **1/2 out of ****
Lo sapevi?
- QuizJulia Montgomery refused to reprise her role as Betty because in the original script Betty is caught cheating on Lewis. Montgomery felt it betrayed the change in her character from the first film. Joe Roth offered to have the scene re-written but Montgomery still refused. She eventually returned for the following sequels. Lewis is shown packing a picture of Betty in the beginning of the film, implying they're together and that Lewis cheats on Betty with Sunny later in the film.
- BlooperDuring the jail scene, two of the boys are playing chess. Considering they are experienced players (Skolnick's remark at the beginning of the movie); they should have seen that the board was in the wrong position.
